    Nice very short stay in the Kilmartin Glen

    For a short stay, this place is great for up to 4 people. For longer stays we would advise something with more room, and the possibility to eat all on the same table, but this was definitely not an issue for our short term stay anyway.

    Nice very short stay in the Kilmartin Glen. We had planned a short weekend to hike near Tayvallich, then visit the many historical sites near Kilmartin Glen, so this B&B was perfectly located. Yvonne was also very helpful and flexible regarding our arrival time, which changed on last minute, that was greatly appreciated.

    Very comfortable and clean, and exactly the location we wanted.

    Nothing much, though I chuckled at the door, which is only 4ft high.. but fear not.. it makes sense when you step inside ;) One thing that may be useful is a boots mat inside.. as taking off our muddy shoes and then stepping inside was a bit of a faff. Apart from that. its amazing what they did with the space.

    A sudden requirement to stay overnight, and a quick look around for accommodation. This looked perfect. location was good, and so was the reasonable price for 2. The owner was accommodating and kind. its kind of self catering- but the breakfast is in a basket and is full of yummy treats. the coffee machine made perfect cuppas, to get us going. Lovely toilet and shower room. and the masticator toilet gave us a chuckle ;) Easy to park, and fabulous location. - the stars glitter above. Beds were comfy, and the rooms were warm on a cold cold night !

    Didn't affect us, but guests with limited mobility would maybe struggle with access; adds to the charm, but might be worth making this clearer early in booking process - and for booking flexibility (especially family groups) a double and two single beds might be an improvement?

    Lovely quiet location, clean, comfortable, well equipped and catered for, communication and directions clear

    Not a criticism but more of a suggestion! The low door is charming but perhaps a grab handle on the inside would help older guests as the two sets are steep.

    Comfort, cleanliness hosts,both husband and wife were hugely hospitable and helpful. Thank you both. We,ll be back for sure.

    There wasn't anything we didn't like.

    The breakfast basket was really well thought out and the host provided for gluten free member. Fresh milk, cheese, ham and juice in the fridge was just the right amount and perfect to make a snack when we arrived. The host was so friendly and keen to help with anything we may need and their dog was super friendly and well behaved. The surrounding area was quiet with beautiful views. Instructions on how to find was spot on and easy to follow.

    cramped space fir clothes and eating breakfast together( 2 rooms). Tried to speak with staff / owners second day as water filter not working but could not get their attention after 2 separate attempts knocking their door.

    Lovely bedrooms with comfortable beds and good breakfast basket. In a village near Kilmartin- which had good interesting museum and cafe and hotel offering good pub food fir evening dining.
